Christmas Carolers - Rehearsals

WHERE WILL MY VOICE FIT IN?

Everyone’s voice is uniquely their own.  Some of us have “high” voices and some of us have ‘low” voices — we can hear the difference, but where does your voice fit into the “low to high” musical notes that we hear on the radio, in church, in the shower or car, etc??

Here’s an illustration showing the middle portion of a piano with Middle C and showing the ranges of male and female voices. On an average, the range for male voices is between the deep low F and a high Bb, and the range for female voices is between a low Eb and a high F.

For fun,  just start singing or humming “Row Row Row Your Boat” — based on early childhood memories, your first note will probably be Middle-C (or men might start on the lower C)… but “C” is somehow locked into our heads.

Listen to Middle C

REHEARSALS

  • Bring a bottle of water, and a recording device – smartphones are perfect.
  • Some of our singers are sensitive to fragrances, so please try to avoid wearing any scented products when you come to rehearsal.
  • We do attempt to start right at 6:00pm, but we also realize that sometimes that’s not possible. So if you arrive late, come on in and take a seat quietly without disturbing those around you.
  • As a guest, you will be given a buddy who will guide you through the rehearsals in the weeks ahead and to answer your questions during breaks or after rehearsal.

We have several members and family members
with health issues that put them in high risk,
so if you’re not feeling well, please take that week off and review your music at home.
